FIRE REAPS HARVEST
OF DEATH IN ROCHESTER
Babes Thrown From Windows-Two
Attendants Killed in the Crush
Explosion Adds to the
Destruction.
Rochester. N. Y Jan. 8. The Ro
chester Orphan Asylum wns the scene,
shortly after midnight, of a fire and
panic In which the lives of twenty or
more rhltdicn nnd at least two of .tho
attendants' of the Institution weia
burned or crushed out, and half a huii
drcd persons, most of them little one,
wert trampled upon, burned or othtv
wise Injured.
Twenty-seven bodies have been le
covcud so fai. and It Is believed the
death list may leach forty when nil the
140 Inmates have been accounted for. Of
the injuied many nre likely to die.
When the firemen responded to
the general alarm arrived the Inmates
were Jumping from the windows and
the pttendants weie thiowltm helpless

numhci of dead Is among Infants rang
ing in age from 1 to t years.
The fire, which originated in the fur
nace room, was first discovered by two
men passing by. They hastily sent In
an nlarm nnd then turned their atten
tion toward mousing nurses and chil
dren. A ten trie explosion wns hear '.

Wnihlnglon. Jan, 7 Senator Mw
gan today piesentvd part 4 of the re
port ot the Senate Committee on III
teroeeanlc Canals on the pioject of an
Isthmian waterway. It is chiefly Intel -estlug
In being a lealflrnmtlun tbnt the
limit bill now pin. ling In the "Senntj
providing for the instruction of Hie
Nlcaiagua canal "furnished the tru'.
sate and houoiable method of dealing
with the rights, powcis and duties :u
connection with an Isthmian canal."
The leport s.is that there Is no reason
for further delay, but that the pending
nlit should be passed or abandoned.
'If the House bill is passed In the
Senate, nnd becomes u law, it Is safe
to expect that an agreement can be
made with Oreat Ilrltaln as favorable
at least to tho I'nited Stntcs as that
cnnalned In the Hay-Paunccfntc treaty,
as amended after the House bill Is en-,
acted, This explanation Is not based
upon nny supposed want of power or
ot will In that great empire to main
tain what she considers a Just or at'
'vnnlngeous position, nor yet upon l:cr
magnanimity, for that we do not ask,
hut upon the fact that the canal when
built will be of Incalculable value to all
her North and Central American pos
sessions, and that she can never real
ize these advantages without the con
sent and assistance of the t'nlted
Stntcs. Neither can Gieat Ilrltaln or
any combination of powers construct
nnd maintain a canal at Panama with
out our consent."
WHEN DOCKERY FORGOT
Alexai .Icr Dockery has been electel
Governor of Missouri, says the Chicago
Record's Washington correspondent,
and expects 'to be sworn In nnd assume
authority on the second Tuesday In
January but. like the rest of mankind,
he Is a . renture of habit, and comes
strolling into Washington this year at
the opening of Congress, ns he has done
for the laat twenty ,ycars.
Docl.ciy.ls absent minded nlso, and
forgot that tie was no lunger a mem
ber of the House, of Representatives.
On the llrst day or. the session he en
tcie'tl the hall, Inirig his coat and hat
on the old peg In the cloak room, said
good morning to the doorkeeper, got
Into the barber's chair and was shaved,
and then went out nnd took his former
seat about half way down the thlid'
aisle oa the Democratic side. A nt
me.nb'-r from Virginia noticed a fine
looking specimen of statesmanship oc
cupying his chair and chatting fami
liarly with the neighbors around him,
hut was too much of n gentleman to In
terrupt the conversation, so he went
off nnd sat down somewhere else. When
the House was called to order Dock
ory nodded assent hs he used to do,
aioso nnd bowed his head reverently
dmjng the chaplain's prayer, and then
listened attentively to the leading of
the Journal to Bee If he could detect
nnvthlng to criticise or to object to,
but It wns srort, sweet nud offered no
oportunlty to And faulty When Mr. Hull
offered n resolution for the consldcra
tlon of the.army bill Dockery nroso to
discuss the proposition, when some
body pulled his coat tnll and reminded
him that ex-members arc not permitted
to pattlclpate in debate.
Dockery turned red In the fnce, left
the scat, grabbed his overcoat and ha
and rushed over to the room of the
Committee on Aproprlatlons. where ho
I laid his head upon tho breast of the
! Hon. Joseph O. Cannon of Illinois and
I wept bitterly. Krom thnt time on he
has Mot entered thd Houso of Represen
tntlves. and ns soon ns ho can get a
railroad pass he Is going home.
Mr. Dockery Is one of the few who
have retired from, Congress voluntnit
ly. He was a useful nnd an Influcntlil
member, but. llko Alexander the Great,
he sighed for other worlds to conquer.
Although the Governorship of Missouri
Is a high honor, worthy of the moat
ambitious of men, nevertheless Dock
ery's habits, formed early In life, of
objecting to Republican schemes of
legislation are difficult to overcome.
